Coincidentally, I started using Gmail two days ago. They do have an alternative to the graphical characters when you register - you can listen to numbers being spoken. However, despite having quite reasonable ears, I couldn't decipher them after three attempts and had someone read the graphical characters. The audio option is, then, little more than tokenism on Google's part.
Apart from getting started, though, yes it's pretty good. You can use the standard view with Wineyes and I was able to activate links to messages. However, I can see no reason not to use the basic view. It's much cleaner and, so far as I can tell, you don't miss out on any features. Andrew From: Sara [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 17 July 2008 02:48 To: [email protected] Subject: GMail Hi all. I just opened a GMail account today. I had to get sighted help with the verification picture but after that it works pretty well. I use the basic html view to read my messages. Does anybody know if the standard view is workable with Window-Eyes? I can't seem to click things that I think should be clickable like the subject of a message to open that message. I can click them in the basic view but not in the standard one. Also, any idea if Google Talk can be made to read a little better? I have tried the one on the webpage and am going to test the stand-alone one tomorrow when somebody comes online. Thanks.
